1969 C50 grille removal

Hey everybody, first post here. I'm in the beginning stages of tearing down my 69 c50 now that we have the bed built and I need to get just the grille out. Is it possible to take out just the grille and not grille, fenders, etc? Any pointers that you guys may have would be extremely helpful. Thanks!!

Nice truck!
The core support is the grill in these trucks. Although I've never pulled it separately from fenders and hood I see no reason why not. Depending on your goal it may be easier to pull the entire front clip as a unit.

I'm sure someone else will chime in. Good luck!
